Super dio there Mike. Great setting. Nice that the bright coloured tropics set off the drab PT boat so well.

Excellent!! Really top notch work.

Had to look up Rendova as I'd not heard of it.... And then proceeded to lose half an hour reading up on that part of the Pacific campaign.

Thanks all, Knew zero about PTs when I started the build , it was a great journey, plan to do a Higgins 70 footer or a RN Vosper for my next ship build . Andrew if your interested in the PTs Dick Keresey's book PT 105 is an excellent read jAI8i.jpgjsuV8.jpg

You're a bad man!! I've just recently bought a new bookcase as the old one was full up and that's fast running out of space!! ;)
